More quotes by Jessica Alba
Nothing is put on pause. Everything is still happening. And then as far as just reflecting on what got you to where you are, there aren't very many times where we have the space to sit and reflect and really understand the depth of what it took and the grit that we had to have to get to where we are.

My parents were young and liberal and knew I was going to drink anyway, so they let me do it at home.
Jessica Alba
Being perfect is being flawed, accepting it, and never letting it make you feel less than your best.
Jessica Alba
When I went from girl body to woman body and all of a sudden I had tits and hips and a little tummy and natural fat in places, I freaked out.
Jessica Alba
I like to organize. I have an opinion. I like to get stuff done.
Jessica Alba
Way too high maintenance to be in a relationship with an actor. I don't need a man who spends as much time in front of the mirror as me.
Jessica Alba
I don't hang out with the Hollywood cool people. I'm not out trying to make friends with people because they're famous.
Jessica Alba
Good actors never use the script unless it's amazing writing. All the good actors I've worked with, they all say whatever they want to say.
Jessica Alba
It feels like I'm starting to come into my own in terms of where I want to go artistically, toward more complicated, interesting characters.

Jessica Alba
My approach to wellbeing is to not be so critical and so hard on myself, and also to not think that I have to conform to other people's ideas of beauty, and to be okay with what made me feel good. I think it took me a while to get there.
Jessica Alba
I did research when I was pregnant with my first daughter and was horrified by the chemicals in products, even those meant for babies. I would have to go to 50 different places just to get my house and my kid clean.
Jessica Alba
I'm not incredibly self-conscious. I don't really feel like I walk around making fashion or my appearance the most important thing in the world. It's certainly not the way that I live my life. I'm not really sure how the magazines perceive me because I don't read them.
Jessica Alba
A parent knows better than any book or expert what their kid really needs.
Jessica Alba
I actually wanted to be a producer because I like to run things.
Jessica Alba
I think the world is ready for people of color to take on more heroic and leading roles, and not always be the sidekick, the nemesis or any sort of stereotype of what a person of color can play typically in a Hollywood picture.
Jessica Alba
I wish I could speak Spanish, because it would be a lot easier to play more interesting roles.
Jessica Alba
Like many other moms out there, I try to buy safe products for my family, but that can't be the only solution. You can't hire a team of scientists to do your shopping for you. At some point the government has to step in and ensure that chemicals are safe before our children are exposed to them.
Jessica Alba
Just being a mother is making me a big, weepy mess.
Jessica Alba
Nanotechnology is really interesting to me. Stuff to sort of make our world a better place, and a cleaner place, through science. And it also explains things that are happening. I've always been into it.
